When detail is paramount, this device delivers industrial-grade performance with an accuracy of up to 0.020 mm. Its high repeatability ensures consistent and reliable results across various scenarios, making it the perfect solution for critical product development cycles and rigorous quality control inspections where every micron counts. You can trust the data output for even the most demanding engineering applications.


Capturing Fine Details and Dark Surfaces

Limitless Scanning

SimScan 42 Gen2 easily scanning a black and reflective car part without any surface preparation.

Equipped with an array of 27 blue laser crosses and 17 parallel lines for hyperfine scanning, the unit excels at capturing intricate geometries. It overcomes common digitizing challenges, such as scanning black or highly reflective surfaces, without the need for excessive preparation. Additionally, a dedicated single blue laser line allows for deep-hole scanning, providing access to confined areas like slots and pockets that standard scanners often miss.


Automated Workflow Integration

Streamlined Production

Scanology SimScan 42 Gen2 integrated into an automated 3D measurement system on a robotic arm.

For high-volume manufacturing environments, this hardware can be seamlessly integrated into automated 3D measurement systems. This capability removes the constraints and bottlenecks of manual inspection methods, significantly enhancing efficiency and ensuring continuous quality assurance throughout all stages of the production process.
